Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Flat Bar 16mm 14.5

Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Flat Bar 16mm 14.5

The mouthpiece has a thickness of 16mm at its thickest point. So it is a medium-thick mouthpiece.

Comparative values: normal warmbloods 16 - 18mm, ponies rather 10 - 14mm, thoroughbreds 12 - 16mm and particularly large warmbloods, cold-bloods and Shire Horses rather 18mm and larger.

When selecting the bit thickness and size, pay attention to the anatomical conditions of the horse's mouth. You can use your fingers to check how much space there is between the tongue and palate.

The Trust Equestrian development team continuously works on innovative bits to further optimize the design and function of the bits. Today we would like to introduce you to the Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Flat Bar 16mm 14.5 from the Trust Equestrian range in more detail:

The bit Trust Bit Sweet Iron Elevator Bit Flat Bar 16mm 14.5 is made of Sweet Iron and equipped with Elevator Rings. The mouthpiece of this bit is a straight bar. The bit has a mouthpiece size of 14.5 centimeters.

Bit Thickness

The mouthpiece size 14.5cm is usually ideal for very large warmbloods.

Sidepiece

Elevator bits

The elevator bit can be ridden with two reins. The second rein, with increased pressure, causes the bit to tilt and pull up in the corner of the mouth. This results in a stronger effect. Very good for horses that tend to lean on the bit. The bit also supports the horse's natural self-carriage.

Mouthpiece

Straight bar bits

A straight bar is usually straight or slightly curved to adapt to the anatomical conditions in the horse's mouth. A straight bar mouthpiece has a sharper action than a single-jointed or double-jointed mouthpiece.

Bit Material

Sweet Iron

Trust's Sweet Iron bits are made of steel. The bits are designed so that surface rust forms on contact with air and moisture. This tastes sweet and stimulates saliva production. Horses therefore readily accept Sweet Iron bits.
